I am glad that Ms. Giffords has stabilized but am very sorry for the five victims who were killed by this liberal terrorist, one of whom was U.S. District Judge John Roll who was a Bush-appointee and faced many death threats in 2009 while he presided over a $32 million civil-rights lawsuit filed by illegal immigrants against an Arizona rancher. Coincidence?
Not a liberal terrorist. Rather a mentally ill individual who may or may not have been influenced by some of the right wing rhetoric we hear. From the shooter's YouTube ramblings (can't really call them videos) there is a high degree of paranoia, conspiracy leanings, questioning the legitimacy of our government, of our currency. The judge was sadly was collateral damage, as was the 9 year old child.
Local news just reported that a "suspicious package" has been found outside of Ms. Gifford's office. They obviously don't know what it is yet, but hopefully it turns out to be nothing. I guess many people left flowers, etc. there.
Well, there are quite a few people on there that went to school with him, not just the one girl who is being hounded by the media. And those that knew him say he tilted left.
His youtube videos certainly did - but mostly they were just lunatic stuff.

Reason: off topic
So what if it came out that the words of that song he had on his favorite video (his own video I'm sure but under his other alias) inspired him?
"Let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the floor" is pretty specific - so if you intend to censor - do you intend to censor only Conservatives or music groups also?
I'm pretty sure you never wanted anything done about Kilbourne's calling for assassins to get Bush - that was free speech of course.
Amazing isn't it. And we wonder why our children do not take personal responsibility anymore. Do something wrong blame a politician.
